👉 Teenage infections, often referred to as sexually transmitted infections (STIs), are common among adolescents and can arise from various sexual activities. These infections can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites and may not always present noticeable symptoms, especially in their early stages. However, when symptoms do appear, they can range from mild discomfort to severe health complications. Common STIs include chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes simplex virus (HSV), and human papillomavirus (HPV). Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent long-term health issues such as infertility, chronic pain, or increased risk of certain cancers. Education on safe sex practices, regular screenings, and open communication with healthcare providers are essential for preventing and managing teenage infections.
